2.0 out of 5 stars Largely Disappointing., July 27, 2007

This review is from: Babylon 5: The Lost Tales [Original Soundtrack] (Audio CD)

The new "Babylon 5" soundtrack for the recently released "Lost Tales" film marks many returns in more ways than one. This CD is the first "Babylon 5" soundtrack to be released since the original TV series was cancelled and it's also Christopher Franke's first full-length CD release in nearly seven years.
With this said, the CD itself has wound up being largely disappointing. While there are some excellent moments heard here, the music is mostly the same orchestral retreadings that have been the heart of Franke's music for over a decade. In other words, there's really nothing that sounds fresh here. Also, instead of the music being arranged into lengthy suites as on the previous main "Babylon 5" discs, we are treated with 28 short cues that begin with promising results but abruptly end before anything begins to take off.
In the end, Christopher Franke's soundtrack for "Babylon 5 - The Lost Tales" will only appeal to the die hard fans of the series as well as Franke's music. This CD is probably Franke's weakest album and leaves little to be desired. 40 minutes of mostly short music cues just doesn't cut it. Sorry.

I only really bought this CD for the tracks "Main Title", and "End Credits" which I throughly enjoy and are among my all time top B5 musical pieces.

There are some other nice tracks too in that Franke-B5 style, all with exceptional audio quality.

This soundtrack is a must for true B5 fans.
Enjoy!
